FRESH INSPIRATION
i'll trance state while man came TO the
front and gave notice that calico hop
would take place In the same hall Wednes-
day evening for the benefit OF the society.
| 1t was a dreadful descent TO drop from
Mars and listening to the song the fragrance
of the lilly sings to a calico hop and hear
ing how every man who received calico
necktie in q sealed envelope was expected
to devote himself to the young woman
wearing a dress to match. From this sordid
consideration we arose again to name SUBJ
Ject for the imprOmptu poem with Which
Mrs. Richmond always concludes an even
lngs entertainment. ''fhe Song OF the
Stars" was suggested and accepted. Fixing
her eyes on the ceiling once more, she
began:
From the Fathers hand we came,
AS blossoms seeds were sown in space,
In the night of darkness, in breath OF name
No one could our obits trace.
and so continued through some thirty lines
of verse, finally dismissing us with bene-
dictiOn.
Despite the atmosphere of theosophy and
spiritualism in which we live, societies
which deal with the revealed and the ordi-
nary are still permitted to exist. The llll-
nolS WOman'S Press association held its reg
ular monthly meeting last week. The
chief feature of the evening was a musical
programme, rendered by artists. and COM
posed by Chicago woman. member of
the association, who is known in print as
G.. EstabrOok. In society she is Mrs.
ClOwry. She has published an ope ra,
THE Joust or Tournament, in addition
to great deal of other musical work, and
is therefore living refutatlon OF the com
monty advanced argument of wornan's
lack of
ORIGINALITY IN MUSIC.
Mention was made of this fact in her hear
ing. and there was fire in her eye when she
turned and said, Il am charged with deadly
explosives OH that subject, and am only
waiting for good chance to go off," The
probability is every man who has expressed
an opinion that woman is incapable of
originality in musical composition will die
when Mrs. Clowry makes her threatened
attack. Each member of the association
was called upon to give an account of the
literary york she is now engaged in, and
of the forty or fifty women present, two
thirds reported themselves as editors of
philanthropic journals temperance journals,
Sunday school papers, or contributors to the
same. One has just completed play
which has been accepted; another has lately
published book on law-making; several
do work Oh daily papers here: one edits q
law journal-not one was guilty of novel
or volume of verse. DR.. Julia Holmes
Smith, on being called upon to tell what
she is doing at present. bobbed up serenely
and said, Absolutely nothing, and am
doing it beautifully, too" DIR. Smith is
ever ready with All answer, as Eugene
Field discovered not long ago. He said to
her: What is that Press association of
yours, anyhow-a bench show?" Moth
ing of the sort. Mr.. Field. 1t is an associa-
ton of women. Only among men do we

A QUIET LITTLE GAME.


Ned is there; 50 are Sam and Bob-all
the incest fellows in the world. Ned and
Sam play: Bob looks on. Ned wins the
1rst game and sets 'em up. George isn't
at all thirsty, but takes little rye and polly.
Ned wins the third game. Another rye and
polly. During the fourth game Bob sets
'em up. Now it is Georges turn and he
sets 'em up. Then Charlie and Van drop
III and they set 'em up. More of the boys
drop in ond set 'em up. BY this time
George is beginning to have optical delu-
sions, Ned is drOwsy and uprorious by
turns, Sam chalks the wrong end of his cue
and Bob feels a wild desire every five min
utes to stroll out and enjoy the fresh air.
Somebody proposes devilled bone. There
is nothing like devilled bone to counteract
the bad effects of polly. Deyilled bone
goes.
''Kumlomg, f'lers.''~
Bob is ILL apoplexy or something runs in
the family. Bob is bundled into a cab and
sent home. Then the three arrive at
Cholly's. Must stop in and see Cholly.
Neds turn has come around again, and he
must set 'em up.

was announced ready to answer any Ques-
tons. These questions written
ON SLIPS OF PAPER
had been collected from the audience and
man proceeded to read them. The first
was, do you think it possible that 1000
devils were cast from the prodigaI son into
the herd of swine? Could there have been
that many devils?" In deep, round-toned
voice Cora Solemnly answered: There
certainly could have been that many devils.
but the difficulty would lie in finding
enough quadrupeds to cast them into.n Il
will be noticed that spirits are uncommonlv
choice in their expressions. and utterly re-
fuse to pronounce the vulgar word swine.
Other inquiries rather more philosophical
e. G.. that is the difference between instinct
and intuition-were productive of rather
more philosophical replies, and at the con-
clusion of these Mrs. Richmond began her
address. She was frequently interrupted
by applause while she described the condi-
tions OF life on the planets as seen and
known by the much-traveled control,
that prompted her utterances. She went
into details so far as to tell us that the in
habitants of Venus are extremely fond of
astronomy. and that they are as we'll versed
in the science as were the ancient
Egyptians. She even described the towers
from which they take observations, and
declared that they manifest deep interest
in the earth and its people. With a re-
markabie degree of certainty she informed
us concerning the heavenly life enjoyed bv
jewellers OH Mars. One of their uncommon
pleasures is Listening to the song the
fragrance OF the lily sings" Altogether,
she made us feel that if we failed to get to
heaven we would be perfectly resigned to
stopping off at Mars. When she approached
Jupiter her control was weary, and sew

1uily chosen. The basque, In the striped
fabric, has broad Byron collar and plat
ed vest of the silk, and is further trimmed
by the addition of ornamental metal but
tons. The two long square basques into
which it is cut behind have two of these
fancy buttons upon each of them. The
drapery constitutes one of the most curious
| effects OF the season. It is of the plain
| dark debeige, and begins, both tGbtier and
back drapery, right beneath the edge of
the basque, on both hips. The ta6tier
presents plain square front panel, sup
plemented at the edges with several sue
cessive plaits which are excessively broad.
At the back, the first folds of the drapery
| are long, straight, and severe, but to the
rear of these come two rather family defined
jabots, the whole reaching the bottom Of
| the skirt. The latter, where it becomes
visible (and it has but slight opportunities
! to reveal ITSELF is of the striped wooden
fabric, and is quite plain, even the foot
| ruff1e being omitted this latter omis-
sion being feature on some Of the new
| costumes.
Between the front and back draperies oc-
ours space or panel of the silk on each
side. This extends from the bottom of the
basque to the edge of the skirt, and con-
sists of the gathered spaces and the shir-
rings which produce them. Cuffs and col
lar of silk, 6rnamented with the same
unique metal buttons employed upon the
other portions of the dress.
The long sustained popularity which
has enabled heliotrope to continue the
favorite among colors for SO great length
of time is almost marvel in the annals Of
fashion.
tbs, beyond all others, the color in mil
linery, and it's shades comprise an infinite
gamut of beautiful tints, from the palest
lilac and lavender to the richest puppies.
Other colors which are still liked are
Charles x. and English" pink, both of
which are among the colors best liked for
millinery purposes; ciel blue, all the we'll
known shades Of green, and many other
tints are also seen. There is tendency
toward greater adherence to nature in
the flowers seen, and these are also usually
the more delicate and elegant blossoms in
place of the great masses Of horticultural
products which formerly graced fashion
able bonnets.
The shapes seen are many. Small,
snugly fitting capotes are worn upon
matronly heads, as general thing, but
the shapes our younger ladies admire are
